Does Workman throw a 2 seamer? With his 16-2 G/FO ratio last game, I wasn't sure.

QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 12:40 AM) Preview show starts at 5, Nats should be on the clock at 6. CST you're referring to, right?

So does the actual draft start at 5 tomorrow, or is the first pick a little later?

BTW, just told that no Sox scouts were at Deck McGuire's outing last night. Just an FYI

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 11:28 PM) Robbie Aviles has some pretty bad timing just went down with a partial tear of a ligament in his elbow. Max's brother?

QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 11:31 PM) Curve is plus. Some have it as plus-plus. Cutter may have plus potential too. It certainly looked good when I watched him. Workman's 6'5", 225. That's not a durable frame? Durability with the fastball, I meant.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 11:26 PM) Is that Better? yes, thank you

It would be a lot nicer picking in the 9-10 range instead of 13, especially since the Reds have a lot of the needs we have.

Does Workman even have any plus pitches? At least Wojo has two plus pitches and durability.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 12:21 AM) Do you think the Red Sox would take Danks for Lowell, or do we have to butter them up with Hudson too? What? Is this serious?

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 11:21 PM) I guess our franchise wants to transform into the Baltimore Orioles of the AL Central. I am so glad that we have Lance Broadway III waiting in the wings. Let's just hope whoever we draft doesn't get interviewed by Hawk and Stone and say that he loves to backdoor guys.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 11:17 PM) Nice two way-player. I can't decide whether i'd want him to pitch or hit. Any thoughts? Sox would probably want him to pitch, but there's some that think he's a first round talent on offense now.

A wild card might be Eibner from Arkansas.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 11:11 PM) I keep hearing comparisons to Braun and Markakis, his college career has had its ups and downs, but I 'd argue that his ceiling is pretty respectable. And a few injuries this season slowed him down.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 11:46 PM) I was sold on Brentz, but the more i read and hear, it'll be a pitcher. I'll go Workman. He'll suck. Hopefully someone like Brentz is so high up on their board, they can't pass him up.

So who is everyone's prediction? I'm torn between Wojo and Workman, but I think it's going to be Wojo.

GT is going to get offers from the SEC and Big 10, but look for them to choose the SEC.

First two homers Ely has given up in his career.

Nice location by Jenks. You have to wonder if that game saved some jobs.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 09:16 PM) Is it me but doesn't Jenks seem to blow saves during the day...the Pirates and Jays come to mind as the two more recent bad ones ..... day games and the Orioles seem to get him Good post...BTW, I've never seen Jenks make a bad defensive play.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 09:12 PM) I traded him from my fantasy keeper team yesterday...that was a tough pill to swallow... Good decision

Another awful game for Beckham. His swing looked disjointed again.

Jenks time in the 9th! If nothing else, it will be entertaining.

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 09:01 PM) Get Bobby in the game now....we can't afford to let this game slip away Yeah, cause Jenks is great with the multiple inning save.

Thornton's just not the same right now. He's going to need to mix up his strategy to these hitters that see him 10 times or more a season.
